Hi, I think this is a little off-topic question, but anyway...

I'm reading K&R and, in the example 1.5 I have to use gecthar(), which
should return _the pressed character_, and, redirect it to the screen
with putchar(). Everything works fine except getchar, which only returns
me the _single or multiple character stream_ I'm writing when I press
<\n>. Why? Here is the code:

#define EOF    -1

main()
{
   int c;

   c = getchar();
   while ( c != EOF)
   {
      putchar(c);
      c = getchar();
   }
}

TIA
